Hi,
I'm looking for accurate answers to the following questions. I've spent a lot of time trying to find this information but it doesn't appear to be readily available. I'm hoping that someone here can help me.
1) How many and which languages absolutely require the use of combinging marks due to the fact there the pre-composed glyphs aren't sufficient?
2) How many and which languages absolutely require the use of variant selectors?
3) How many and which languages absolutely require the use of variant glyphs?
Two and three are not quite the same since I believe that Arabic, for example, uses variant glyphs but doesn't need varient selectors (since the glyphs are chosen algorithmically).
Regards,
Tim Armes
